Dear Bob ...I'd like your opinion about something Management could have the IT department do to bring ideas to the table and start the coordination process: A blind blog.A concept or problem is put on a company message board ... then it is kicked around by management or the team (depending on what level the idea is posted at) with no names being posted. You can have your ideas put out there without worry of look Dear Bob …I’d like your opinion about something Management could have the IT department do to bring ideas to the table and start the coordination process: A blind blog.A concept or problem is put on a company message board … then it is kicked around by management or the team (depending on what level the idea is posted at) with no names being posted. You can have your ideas put out there without worry of looking like an idiot or being challenged by a company rival. Rules:The board is regulated by the CFO at company Level, department head at department level.Comments are kept to the point, what is good or bad. List the gains and losses. Work for a group consensus (Is this possible?) Don’t make disparaging remarks of the people and their postings (for all you know, it might be the boss that you just called an idiot)I would like to see something like this. I have hopes that it would work, at least in some cultures. I know that in several companies it would be just more eyewash.I’m most interested in using this at the executive level, although other departments could also find it useful. Think it would fit your Agile Business Change methodology? – Blog-mindedDear Blog-minded …In general, I’d view a blind blog as more of a suggestion box than a way to create an Agile Business Change process. It isn’t that most employee-generated suggestions are useless. Quite the opposite – most are good ideas. They do, however, tend to be focused pretty narrowly. So I’d expect a blind blog to be more of a useful adjunct than the main event.That’s as a company-wide forum. But a blind blog for the executive team? Man, that raises some serious red flags. For a business to be healthy, the executive team has to have enough internal trust for people to raise ideas and issues with each other, in ways that lead to productive conversations and effective action.If they need a blind blog, that strongly suggests the team has way too little trust, and is inept at dealing with what’s important. There is no technological fix for that.– Bob Technology Industry
